Win BIG this weekend
May 02, 2008 - Harry Sinclair
Sunday night is always the night for when a big online tournament kicks off and this Sunday is no different. You need ook no further than the biggest tournament around: the PokerStars Sunday Million. $1million is guaranteed in the prize pool and last week's winner, KipsterDK (Denmark), walked away with a massive $149,860.76.
Now there is no need to worry if your bankroll is not big enough to pay the $215 buy-in as there are loads of satellites that you can enter and get a seat for a small percentage of the total buy-in. Just click "Tourney" and "Satellites" in the PokerStars game lobby. Then for as little as $3, you can play a satellite almost any time of the day and win an entry into the Sunday Million. This should keep you entertained until the night of the big game.
The biggest problem with the event is that it does not start until 21.15 GMT and that can mean if you get deep and you are even good enough to make the final table the field is so huge that you may be dashing into work having finished at 7am with no sleep.
There is a solution as there is a great tourney that kicks off several hours earlier (17.45 GMT) than the Million but also has a massive prize pool of $500,000. The Sunday Warm-Up is the ideal event for players who live in European time zones, or who want an early start to their tournament day, it also means that if you reach the magic final table you can get some sleep before getting up for work.
The buy-in is again $215 and, like the Million, there are $3 satellites available on the site. And don't be thinking just because the prize pool is half the size that the prizes aren't big – last week's winner Big_Col11 (United Kingdom) won $114,820.96.
So get your week off to a great start by giving yourself a chance to win big!
